Hi, I'm trying to breath new life into a 1984 mk3 1.6 Laser and find myself requiring two new front wings, new headlamp bowls and the dreaded front valance. Can any of you guys offer any advice on best places to find new versions of these items. I know the valance can be super pricey but I have no other option. Wings seem fairly easy to come by but the rest is proving tricky.
Cheers all
Wings n things...

Hi there,
Good luck on the headlamp bowls, they are rarer than rocking horse poo. My suggestion would be to cut out the rust an let new metal in. As for the valance, yep still about, but v v pricey as they are running out. Wings are cheap and dont fit brilliantly.
Copy and paste this into the Q + A forum as this section is for people to post up pics of their restorations. Plus youll get more responses
